About Us
Building a Seat at the Table
I know the pressure of succeeding in male-dominated environments — because I’ve lived it. As a physicist and postdoctoral researcher at McGill University, with more than a decade of experience across international institutions like CERN and Ben-Gurion University, I’ve seen firsthand how brilliant women can feel stuck, unseen, or burned out in STEM.
That’s why I founded Empowered Academic Coaching™: to give women the tools, confidence, and clarity they need to achieve their academic and professional goals — without losing themselves in the process.

Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
Tired of feeling like you don’t belong — even with the credentials to prove it? Learn to dismantle self-doubt so you can submit papers, speak up in meetings, and step into opportunities with confidence.
Publishing & Presenting with Authority
You know your research matters, but the pressure to publish or defend your ideas can feel overwhelming. I’ll help you structure your work, sharpen your message, and present it in ways that earn respect — on paper and on stage.
Navigating Burnout & Isolation
STEM can be a lonely place for women. Long hours, constant competition, and lack of support can leave you exhausted. Together, we’ll build strategies to protect your energy, find mentors and allies, and reconnect to why you started this journey.
